Finding your perfect facial

Whether you’re seeking a deep cleanse, an anti-aging boost, or help with skin concerns like pigmentation or rosacea, there’s a perfect treatment for you. With so many options available, you might be wondering: What’s the best type of facial for me? Let’s explore the benefits of some of our most popular treatments to help you decide. And of course, our expert therapists are always here to guide you.

Carbon Laser Facial

Also known as the China Doll Facial, this treatment leaves your skin with a smooth, porcelain-like finish. It’s non-invasive, painless, and highly effective at improving your skin’s texture and tone. During the procedure, a thin layer of carbon is applied to your face and allowed to penetrate the pores. A laser then heats the carbon, causing it to vaporize and exfoliate your skin, removing impurities and balancing oil production. The result? A glowing, rejuvenated complexion.

Benefits:

  • Deep cleansing: The carbon acts like a magnet, drawing out impurities and unclogging pores. It’s ideal for reducing blackheads, whiteheads, and acne.
  • Oil regulation: By addressing sebaceous gland activity, this facial helps manage oil levels for a more balanced complexion.
  • Gentle exfoliation: The laser creates a controlled exfoliation that reveals newer, healthier skin, promoting a smoother, more radiant appearance.

Fractionated Laser Facial

Designed to target aging concerns, this treatment goes deep into the dermis to stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin. By boosting these essential proteins, the Fractionated Laser Facial helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles, firm the skin, and promote a fresher, more youthful complexion.

Benefits:

  • Anti-aging: By enhancing collagen and elastin production, this treatment can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a youthful glow.
  • Scar reduction: By resurfacing the skin, it helps smooth out scarring, leaving your skin looking healthier and more even.
  • Smoother texture: It evens out rough texture and tones uneven skin, giving you a silky-smooth finish.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Facial

If pigmentation, redness, rosacea, or broken capillaries are your concerns, IPL is your go-to treatment. It works by targeting pigment and blood vessels in the skin, helping the body break them down and even out your skin tone. At the same time, IPL stimulates collagen production, making it an effective anti-aging solution as well. It brightens the skin, evens out tone, and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

Benefits:

  • Even skin tone: IPL can tackle pigmentation and redness, helping to achieve a smooth, even complexion.
  • Anti-aging boost: By stimulating collagen and elastin production, it plumps up the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
  • Brighter skin: The increase in cell turnover and collagen production leaves the skin visibly brighter and glowing.
  • Rosacea treatment: IPL repairs the capillary system, reducing redness and flare-ups associated with rosacea.

SQT Bio-Needling

One of our latest innovations, SQT Bio-Needling, is a revolutionary treatment that goes beyond traditional facials. This advanced skin therapy uses tiny needles to stimulate natural collagen production, increase cell turnover, and allow deeper penetration of active ingredients. The result is skin that’s firmer, smoother, and more youthful. It’s particularly effective for reducing fine lines, improving elasticity, and treating acne scars.

Benefits:

  • Collagen boost: Encourages the skin to produce more collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer, plumper skin.
  • Scar reduction: Helps improve the appearance of acne scars and other imperfections by promoting skin regeneration.
  • Deep penetration: Allows products to penetrate deeper into the skin for enhanced results, boosting hydration and overall skin health.

In Summary: Finding Your Perfect Facial

Choosing the right facial can be overwhelming with so many amazing options available, but it all depends on your unique skin concerns and goals. For deep cleansing and a balanced complexion, the Carbon Laser Facial is a great choice. If you’re targeting fine lines and wrinkles, the Fractionated Laser Facial or IPL will offer powerful anti-aging benefits. And for those looking to boost collagen production and reduce scars, SQT Bio-Needling is a cutting-edge solution.

No matter your choice, regular facials are a key part of maintaining healthy, glowing skin. Our therapists at Shine are here to help you choose the treatment that’s right for you, ensuring you leave with skin that looks as good as it feels!
